Abstract
Objective: This integrative review aims to synthesize literature and evaluate the relationship between formalized nursing leader orientation programs and nursing leadership engagement.
Background: The onboarding and orientation of new nursing leaders should be more supported in healthcare organizations. Research supports that dedicated leadership onboarding and orientation programs increase nursing leadership engagement and retention.
Methods: This review was based on a literature review using PubMed, CINAHL, and Web of Science using MeSH keywords and associated terms, including nursing leadership or nurse manager, engagement, and onboarding or orientation.
Results: Incorporating formalized orientation and onboarding programs for newly hired or promoted nursing leaders improves leadership engagement. Programs should include a mentorship program to pair new leaders with experienced leaders to promote interprofessional collaboration and incorporate an advanced curriculum focusing on transformational leadership practices that increase nursing leadership engagement.
Conclusions: Implementing formalized onboarding and orientation programs for nursing leaders, focusing on mentorship, interprofessional collaboration, and transformational leadership practices can enhance nursing leadership engagement and retention. Healthcare organizations should prioritize implementing these programs to enhance nursing leadership engagement and retention.
